How do I restore old leather?

Nourish Your Leather

Old leather can return to its original appearance by applying moisture to the fabric. Many people recommended a solution in a ratio of 1:2 of white vinegar and an oil, such as linseed or mink oil. To nourish old leather:

· Obtain a dry chamois cloth

· Apply the vinegar and oil mixture to the leather to be restored.

· Using round strokes, wipe the leather for at least 15 minutes ensuring the whole surface is covered.

· Use another dry chamois cloth to remove the excess solution.

· Let the leather dry to a shine.
